Default Membergroup=display stars; Opposed to always show admin stars....

[brentwalker]

Within my forum I am both the admin and member of the forum.  I used the same personal account to post and administrate the forum.  I would like for my "Star" rating be displayed in respect to my membergroup not the 5 stars that go with being an Administrator.  As it is now, my member group is displayed but the stars are in respect to the admin group not my member group.  No matter how many posts I submit, I always have 5 stars.

I submitted this same question previously in the Support Forum and it was suggested that I submit it here.   See (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=83211.0)

This prevents me from having to log on seperately to do administration things while being logged on with my personal account.

Any help or ideas?

thanks and I love this product.

What about setting Primary Membergroup to "no primary membergroup" and give Administrator privileges through Additional Membergroups?

[brentwalker]

Not sure if I understand your reply but the primary membergroup is determined by the number of posts one submits.  I do not know what you mean by "

give Administrator privileges through Additional Membergroups?

Sorry, I am new with SMF and forums in general but am learning quickly.  Thanks for the reply.

Set Primary Membergroup to "no primary membergroup" and check Administrator under Additional Membergroups.

Yes, that worked perfectly.  Thanks Sverre!
